Koalas

The koala looks like a bear.
I do not care.
That it is actually a marsupial.
They are cute.
A baby one could fit inside my boot.
They eat eucalyptus leaves.
They live in the trees.

Sunset

When the sky is cast in golden.
When there's light upon the stair.
And our hearts begin to bolden.
Over things that are not there.
When the clouds are cast in rose.
I feel the need to speak in prose.
And when the sun shines over the plain.
Shedding golden drops of rain.
And when Mother calls us in.
From the place where we've been.
When the sky is cast in shadow.
When there's black upon the stair.
We go to sleep wondering.
About the gold that was there.

The sea

Rolling and crashing.

Upon the sand.

Rolling and crashing.

Upon my hand.

When I am in the water,

I feel as free as a bird.

Flying in the sky.

The salty wind wathing,

Past his powerful wings.

The salty sea, swathing,

Past the wake in the wind.

The Ostrich

The ostrich is a funny bird.
He has so little brain.
All he will do is stand and stare.
If he gets caught in the rain.

Baby Ducks

All the little ducks  go quack, quack, quack.
Each with his feathers like a little brown pack.
Mother duck guides the little things.
When they eat, their beaks make pings.
They are so cute, I would give a hoot.
To pick them up and hug them!

Imaginating creatures

O, the world is full of imagination.
Yes, the world is full of sensation.
Like, the Quild, has 100 toes.
Three eyes and a ring on his nose.
Or the zoop-zoop.
I must say,
For many a day he has splayed.
His limbs to extremities.
He calls it "Limbities".
The whateoop, the dreadful beast,
Has 5 million teeth.
At least.
Or the larm.
Has no end of charm.
She is beautiful,
Wonderful,
But alas, she is blunderful.
I am afraid, these things are not real.
So, let's imaginate them in zeal.

Smile

You don't have to change the world.
You don't have to save the world.
All you have to do is smile.
For a while.
Give a pep talk.
Take a little walk.
Just smile
